SCREEN DEFINITIONS
10.0 Screen definitions, alphabetical
The descriptions of individual screen functions is provided to aid the understanding of the control operation.
Calibration and tuning procedures included in this manual must be used for proper operation. The information
contained in this section is not sufficient to allow proper set-up.
Enter a value for the amount of time in seconds that it
takes to accelerate the machine from stopped to
maximum operating speed
Adjust the display appearance by pressing 4 to increase
contrast or 9 to reduce contrast
Analog I/O: (sensor type, isolated out…)
Select to configure load cell input and control output
modes
Toggles between Manual and Automatic modes; see
also RUN, HOLD, MANUAL, STOP, START, and
SPLICE
Select to access the auto tune options
Toggle to begin or end auto tune feature. CYGNUS will
use the DISTURBANCE LEVEL to create an unstable
condition and then design the optimum tuning
parameters to correct it.
Enter a value for the rate in seconds that the bar graph
display updates. Default value = 0.1 sec.
Select to enter system type selection (Unwind, Rewind,
etc.) and load cell calibration
Enter a value corresponding to the amount of known
weight to be used to calibrate the load cell(s). See also
Section 6.3
Select to enter sensor and system calibration options.
Select to enter tuning parameter calibration options
including out of round roll compensation, gain
scheduling, and dynamic tuning
Calibrate inertia/accel comp
Display directs the operator to calibrate the present
diameter (entered by the operator) with the current
output to the torque device. This step is critical.
Calibrate isolated output
Select to enter control output calibration menu. Use a
multimeter to set the high and low ends of the control
signal output as appropriate for your equipment. (not
normally required.)
Calibrate non isolated output
Select to calibrate inverse diameter output. See also
Section 8.9
Calibrate setpoint ___ [diameter]
Enter a value corresponding to the present diameter of
the roll being measured by the diameter sensor
Calibrate setpoint ___ [web velocity]
Enter a value corresponding to the present speed of the
web being measured by the velocity sensor
